DigestsMonthly
Two lenses on the same calendar month. What was announced this month, and which jobs ended this month.
In June 2012, employers announced 157 layoff notices affecting 18,786 workers across 27 states in the USA, down 47% from May 2012. Separately, 19,730 jobs ended in June 2012.
How to read these numbers
Filed this month counts notices by the date they were announced. Jobs ending this month counts layoffs by the date workers actually leave. The two halves rarely match, because notices are published before the layoffs they describe take effect. Federal WARN generally requires 60 days' advance notice for covered events, but requirements, exceptions, and the dates in individual records vary.
